I always thought Kevin Kilbane's legs were gone when he joined us

We could have cashed in on Vik in January, rumour is that we had an offer. I don't know if anyone has any details on that but we chose to take a gamble and keep him until the season ended and it very nearly paid off. On that basis I think we shouldn't get too upset if he goes for a bit below...

Boosh learned his lesson on that

wikipedia showing him as our player 😂:ROFLMAO: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armand_Gnanduillet

When I heard commentators on Leicester's games I always thought Paul Dickov sounded like Pull Dickoff

Exactly. As I posted earlier, there could be all sorts of things happening which we don't know about.

If the report is true, being happy with an offer, and accepting it are two different things. Vik will hopefully want to wait a few days to see what, if anything, else is on offer. I don't really believe what the reports say regarding it being a done deal as far as Vik is concerned.

I wouldn't risk a bet on it, but I think King isn't stupid. I wouldn't be at all surprised if one day very soon we just hear Vik is having a medical and that's the first concrete thing we hear.

Statement of fact Apparently....

Did he say that? He said they have been in touch with the club didn't he.

If I understand the situation correctly, the only offer on the table currently is 15M euros (£12.7M) as far as we can tell. Sporting keep saying they are prepared to up their offer to E20M but haven't done so yet I don't believe. There is absolutely no way we should accept their opening offer.

And besides, the club's stance on player valuations / transfers is not just about this one player

If Gyokeres' mental health is suffering now, less than a week into the window, what will he be like waiting another year?

This is always the problem when discussing player's salaries. I have no idea what any of them earn, and I doubt anyone on here does either, unless they are directly connected to the player or the club. As I said, the nearest we can get to it is by taking an average of what is shown on the net...

No, probably not . These salary webpages are notoriously inaccurate, but a look at 3 sites suggests Gus is on between 5.2K and 6.5K pw, with the top earners on about 10K.

I doubt we would need to make Gus captain in the next 12 months, it's about pay only I suspect. Waghorn, Palmer, and Bidwell probably earned at least twice what Gus and others earned last season. That didn't seem to affect morale as far as I cound see.

We have no idea what might be going on in the background, Sweden's round of Euro qualifying games finish on Tuesday I believe, so maybe something will happen next week

Trouble is, it was John Harriott's

I'm sure it's been said before but while Vik is on international duty, nothing is likely to happen. The processes involved would require him to be available in the location of the purchasing club. In many transfers, the first thing we hear about it, is the player is undergoing a medical.

Yes, that was the point of my post that the instagram message was in all likelyhood just guesswork. my earlier post in the thread would clarify that, and if he does sign for Sporting I'm sure it will be a good move for him. However, a few alternative points to consider regarding your list of...
